4 BLUE AN'D-'WH'IT'E THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL On January 22 of this year the vot- ers of South Williamsport endorsed the erection of a new Junior-Senior High School by a vote of nearly three to one. This building, which is to cost S221,000, will be constructed on a lot purchased for this purpose by the School Board some time ago. It will supply the adequate and modern fa- cilities for education, of which South Williamsport has so long stood in need. THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL The plans call for a twenty-room building in which will be class rooms, recitation rooms, and special rooms. As it is to be a Junior-Senior High School, it will house the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades-the Junior division-on the first floor, and the tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades- the Senior division-on the second floor. One advantage the new High School will have over the old is its Vocational course. There will be a room--a gen- THE OLD HIGH eral shop--for that. There will be a, library, a gymnasium for sports and an auditorium for lectures, plays, and the like. Above all there will be a cafeteria, which will indeed be a boon to the pupils from the ends of the borough who now bring their lunches. The building promises to be a beau- tiful as well as useful one, and the classes which have the pleasure of graduating from it will find it to bear comparison easily with other modern high-schools. THE OLD HIGH SCHOOL Our present high school was erected in 1883, but even at that early day, it was found insufficient to meet the growing demands of our progressive borough. So in 1905 an addition was made in the rear, which suiiiced for the time. Since then, however, it has. been remodeled and annexed to, until it little resembeles its former con- tours. In 1926 the present annex was built but even at the time it could not. meet the demands, with every avail- able inch of space utilized. In spite' of the cramped conditions, however, the educational work has been admin- istered to great advantage and the standard of education has not been lowered.
